Re: [2/2] ACPI: report "Module Device" support via _OSI

[Kenji Kaneshige <kaneshige.kenji@jp.fujitsu.com>]

Hi,

I have a question. The ACPI container driver can be build as a
kernel module. Should _OSI("Module Device") returns TRUE even
when container driver module is not loaded? (Typically, _OSI is
evaluated at _INI time, I think. So container driver module is
not loaded at _OSI("Module Device") time anyway.)

Thanks,
Kenji Kaneshige
